Just a question - Naniwa got eliminated from Code A yesterday... is it possible that he can use his Anaheim placement to get Code A again next season?

Naniwa is going to have a lifetime Code A status through MLG  as much as I like Naniwa, I do think this is a little unfair, I hope next season they allow Koreans to take 1 or 2 of the Code A spots and leave 1 or 2 for the top foreigner placements.
That won't happen. The whole point of the code A spots is to increase the number of foreigners in the GSL. It's hard for the foreigners to go over there and play in the qualifiers if they arent already living in Korea. Plus, that doesn't guarantee any of them will make it. I know it can seem unfair when there are really good Koreans stuck in code B, but the whole point of this is to globalize the GSL more than just having Huk with 63 other koreans. If naniwa keeps placing at the top of the foreigners, then he keeps earning his spot. No one had a problem with him getting it the first time. + Show Spoiler +just because he lost this time doesnt mean he'll never win a GSL game

Because foreigners don't practice enough. It's their fault if their skill level is not up to par with the Koreans. If they want to become better they have to stop being lazy and practice 8-12 hours a day. To win money you have to be one of the best.

Because people want to see the best players play SC2 which at the moment consists of mostly Koreans and a handful of foreigners.

That doesn't make it an exchange then, it makes it "HEY KOREANS COME TO AMERICA TO GET CODE A!", besides if no one beats out NaNiwa for the Code A spot, why is he not allowed to keep it? The way they have it now is perfectly fine imo.

Pretty sure that $5000 won't be missed that much anyway.

This , if nobody can stop naniwa from getting his code A spot he's going to keep it.

"our" ? people are hoping this game will have a global scene (me included), so that kind of thinking is stupid. whats the point of watching semipro when u can have actual pro. for semipro there are tons of weekly events which are streamed

If they get the money from winning its quite obvious they deserved it.
you make it sound like they get it for free.

This money is earned.
Foreigners aren't earning it. They have only themselves to blame.

Don't forget that foreigners get ''free'' code A and even code S spots. So, no it's not unfair.
It just demonstrates how much better the koreans are.

If someone chooses to dedicate that much time to be great at the game, you have no one to blame but yourself if you're unwilling to match his dedication.

Except it's fallacious to think practicing more than 10 hours a day is even productive. Brute force methods are just heavy handed and give you diminishing returns. I'd rather see how someone practices rather than how much before saying they're doing it wrong.

Completely irrelevant - Koreans are obviously doing something right in their practice routines when compared to foreigners, and a large part of it can be contributed to practice time and quality. It's pretty obvious that Koreans practice both longer and have better quality practice.

how is practice time irrelevant? What are you talking about? Go practice 14 hours a day and tell me it's better than 8-10. You'll be the one run down with no stamina and everyone else will be fresh.
